Final Fantasy IV: Ultima

Overview

Final Fantasy IV - Ultima is a ‘deluxe’ version of Final Fantasy II for the SNES. FF2US always felt somewhat lacking and incomplete but full of potential. This hack rectifies that by adding a ton of additions to the base game while keeping the majority of the main story intact and the feel of FF2US the same.

List of features, additions and changes:

• 32 New Weapons! Including Ultima Weapon!

• 25 New Spells! Also revamped existing spells!

• 25 New Bosses!!

• New Enemy Graphics!! (HUGE thanks to chillyfeez!)

• New Areas! New Side Quests!

• New Events! New Endgame Scenarios!!

• New Equipment Screen with DETAILED buffs and stats!!

• New attack/swing/spell animations!

• New weapon graphics!! New sound effects!

• New maps, new areas and new edits to overworld maps!

• New events! New enemies!! Sprint with the Y button!!

• New commands for characters. New Armors and Gears!

• Revamped shops/equipment and balanced their progression.

• Dark Knight Cecil now dual-wields and is 2-handed!!

• Edge is now buffed offensively! Stealing is also buffed!

• Rydia has also been buffed(slightly). It’s a surprise!

• Cecil has been buffed as a tank.

• Rosa can use more White Mage combative gears.

• Kain has new offensive buffing spells at end-game and new commands as he rejoins the team.

• Rare items and summons now drop much easier! This hack is designed as a ‘play-through’ without grinding.

• Many enemies now have meaningful rare drops, and all end-game enemies now have rare ultimate drops!

• New thrown weapons and back-row weapons!

• Lots of secrets that can lead to early acquirement of better equipment!

• Few minor tweaks to the base game such as save points, etc.

• Useless finds now replaced with good items or equipment!

• All weapons/armors used by characters no longer in party are now usable by at least one character from the end-game party!

• MOST items/equipment are now non-missable. Meaning they will be acquirable in some ways at end-game.
